文档简介
【题干】 —It’s nice．Never before ______such a special drink!
—I’m glad you like it．
A．I have had B．I had
C．have I had D．had I
【答案】C
【解析】第一句还原为正常语序为：It’s nice．I ______such a special drink never before!由句意可知，说话人以前从未喝过这样特别的饮料，应该用现在完成时；never是否定副词，置于句首，句子要部分倒装，即将助动词提至主语前。故选C。
【题干】 The experiment shows that proper amounts of exercise, if ______regularly, can improve our health．
A．being carried out B．carrying out
C．carried out D．to carry out
【答案】C
【解析】句意:“实验表明如果有规律地进行适量的运动（锻炼），会增进我们的健康。”此处if引导省略句，全句应为：if proper amounts of exercise is carried out regularly。根据省略的原则，把相同的主句和系动词be省去，就只剩下carried out regularly。
被省略的句子成分无法从上、下文找到，或者不明显。这时，就需要答题者通过对句子结构和句子成分之间的联系进行分析，找出并补上被省略的部分，然后再选答案。
【题干】Of all ______ reasons for my decision to become a university professor, my fathers advice was ______ most important one．
A．the； a B．/； a

【解析】第一空表示特指所有的理由，须用定冠词the；第二空表示最高级意义，须在形容词最高级前加the。
【题干】How much ______she looked without her glasses!
A．well B．good
C．best D．better
【答案】D
【解析】题干是由how引导的感叹句，还原成陈述句语序为：She looked much ______without her glasses．这样我们就不难看出，much用来修饰比较级，用better正确。
【题干】He gained his ______by painting ______of famous writers．
A．wealth; work B．wealths; works
C．wealths; work D．wealth; works
【答案】D
【解析】wealth是不可数名词，没有复数形式，故排除B、C两项；work作“工作”讲时，是不可数名词，但作“作品”讲时，是可数名词；又由后面的famous writers可知，要用复数形式。
【题干】 Always remember to put such dangerous things as knives out of children’s ______．
A．touch B．sight
C．reach D．distance
【答案】C
【解析】句意：“要常记住把诸如小刀之类的危险物品放在小孩伸手所能触及的范围之外。”reach指伸出手脚所触及的范围，符合句意。touch“触摸”；sight“视力；视觉”；distance“距离”。
【题干】One’s life has value ______one brings value to the life of others．
A．so that B．no matter how
C．as long as D．except that
【答案】C
【解析】句意:“只要一个人给别人的生活带来价值，那么他的生命就有价值。”从用法上看，四个选项放入空格处都正确，但根据句意可知此处表示“只要”，因此用as long as。so that意为“以便；因此”；no matter how意为“不管怎样”；except that意为“除了”。
【题干】Mum is coming．What present ______for your birthday
A．you expect she has got
B．you expect has she got
C．do you expect she has got
D．do you expect has she got
【答案】C
【解析】本题分清句子中各成分之间的关系是解题的关键，what引导的特殊疑问句应用疑问语序；expect引导宾语从句，从句应用陈述语序。do you expect可看作是插入语。
【题干】If he takes on this work, he will have no choice but ______an even greater challenge．
A．Meets B．meeting
C．meet D．to meet
【答案】D
【解析】考查固定用法。所填词与前文构成固定句型have no choice but to do sth“别无选择，只能做某事”。
【题干】—Do you have any idea what Paul does all day
—As I know, he spends at least as much time playing as he ______．
A．writes B．does writing
C．is writing D．does write
【答案】B
【解析】该题难度较大。答语是由as．．．as引导的比较状语从句，因此，主从句比较的事物是相同的，由此可知空格处的谓语动词应是spends，而spend常用于短语spend some time (in) doing sth。根据分析可知，空格处必须有一个谓语，同时有一个动词-ing形式作补语，故选B。does在此代替前面的spends，而相同的宾语much time被省去。补充完整为：．．．as he spends much time writing。
【题干】The ______shoes were covered with mud, so I asked them to take them off before they got into ______car．
A．girl’s; Tom’s B．girls’; Toms’
C．girls’; Tom’s D．girl’s; Toms’

【解析】由下文的them可知，女孩不只是一个，所以所有格应是girls’，故可排除A、D两项；再根据汤姆的所有格是Tom’s可知选C。
【题干】As he reached ______front door, Jack saw ______strange sight．
A．the; 不填 B．a; the
C．不填; a D．the; a

【题干】We have every reason to believe that ______ game will be ______ success．
A．/； a B．the;/
C．the; a D．a; a
【答案】C
【解析】句意：“我们有充分的理由相信那场比赛将是一次成功的比赛。”第一空后的game是说话双方都知道的，故用定冠词the；第二空success在此为抽象名词具体化，指“成功的人或事”，名词前须加不定冠词a。
【题干】 As is known to all, ______ People’s Republic of China is biggest developing country in the world．
A．the; 不填 B．不填; the

【题干】 The development, of industry has been ______ gradual process throughout human existence, from stone tools to modem technology．
A．不填，the B．the； a
C．a;不填 D．a; a

A．不填; A B．不填; The
C．the; The D．a; A

A．him B．his
C．me D．mine
【答案】C
【解析】句意："在我的桌子上有一张我婴儿时父亲给我照的相片。"take a photo of sb是固定搭配，意为"给某人拍照"，空格处在句中作of的宾语，故用人称代词的宾格形式；且由题意可知，是给"我"拍照，故选me。
【题干】Some of the stamps belong to me, while the rest are ______．
A．him and her B．his and hers
C．his and her D．him and hers
【答案】B
【解析】名词性物主代词相当于"形容词性物主代词+名词"，his and hers 相当于 his stamps and her stamps。
【题干】-Silly me! I forget what my luggage looks like．
-What do you think of ______ over there
A．the one B．this
C．it D．that
【答案】D
【解析】说话人埋怨自己忘记了行李的外观，答话人提醒对方注意那边的行李，所以用that，特指the luggage。luggage是不可数名词，故排除A；B项与over there矛盾；C项是特指上文已经提到的同一个事物，不合语境。
【题干】When he took his gloves off, I noticed that．______ one had his name written inside．
A．each B．every
C．other D．another

【答案】C
【解析】考查代词。句意:"由于地方政府的努力，大城市的就业率在上升。"由此可知，空格处指代的是the employment rate，是指同一名称同一事物，故应用it。

-Why It's ______ than the films I have ever seen．
A．far more interesting

C．no more interesting
D．any less interesting
【答案】A
【解析】句意:"-我得说，这部电影没意思。-为什么呀？（我觉得）比我曾看过的电影有趣多了。"not a bit表示"一点也不"。根据句中的than可知，此处应用形容词的比较级，而interesting为多音节形容词，其比较级是捕面加more，如表示程度，则在more前加far。

【答案】C
【解析】第一句还原为正常语序为：It’s nice．I ______such a special drink never before!由句意可知，说话人以前从未喝过这样特别的饮料，应该用现在完成时；never是否定副词，置于句首，句子要部分倒装，即将助动词提至主语前。故选C。
【题干】 The experiment shows that proper amounts of exercise, if ______regularly, can improve our health．
A．being carried out B．carrying out
C．carried out D．to carry out
【答案】C
【解析】句意:“实验表明如果有规律地进行适量的运动（锻炼），会增进我们的健康。”此处if引导省略句，全句应为：if proper amounts of exercise is carried out regularly。根据省略的原则，把相同的主句和系动词be省去，就只剩下carried out regularly。
被省略的句子成分无法从上、下文找到，或者不明显。这时，就需要答题者通过对句子结构和句子成分之间的联系进行分析，找出并补上被省略的部分，然后再选答案。

A．wealth; work B．wealths; works
C．wealths; work D．wealth; works
【答案】D
【解析】wealth是不可数名词，没有复数形式，故排除B、C两项；work作“工作”讲时，是不可数名词，但作“作品”讲时，是可数名词；又由后面的famous writers可知，要用复数形式。
【题干】 Always remember to put such dangerous things as knives out of children’s ______．
A．touch B．sight
C．reach D．distance
【答案】C

【题干】—Do you have any idea what Paul does all day
—As I know, he spends at least as much time playing as he ______．
A．writes B．does writing
C．is writing D．does write
【答案】B
【解析】该题难度较大。答语是由as．．．as引导的比较状语从句，因此，主从句比较的事物是相同的，由此可知空格处的谓语动词应是spends，而spend常用于短语spend some time (in) doing sth。根据分析可知，空格处必须有一个谓语，同时有一个动词-ing形式作补语，故选B。does在此代替前面的spends，而相同的宾语much time被省去。补充完整为：．．．as he spends much time writing。

-What do you think of ______ over there
A．the one B．this
C．it D．that
【答案】D
【解析】说话人埋怨自己忘记了行李的外观，答话人提醒对方注意那边的行李，所以用that，特指the luggage。luggage是不可数名词，故排除A；B项与over there矛盾；C项是特指上文已经提到的同一个事物，不合语境。
